Chapter 1 Playing the Keyboard

Transposing the Key of the Keyboard

(Key Transpose)

You can transpose the key of a performance without having to shift the

position of your fingers on the keyboard. This feature is called “Key

Transpose.”

This lets you take a song in a difficult key with lots of sharps ( ) and flats

() and play it in a key with fingering that’s easier for you. This is handy

when playing accompaniment to a song, to match what you play to the pitch

of the singer’s voice.

Hold down the [Transpose] button and press the key

corresponding to the tonic of the desired key.

The Key Transpose settings value continues to appear in the display while

the [Transpose] button is held down.

With the [Transpose] button held down, you can change the value, even by

pressing the [-] or [+] button.

The available range is -6–0–5.

When you release the [Transpose] button, you return to the previous screen.

Example: Playing a Song in the Key of E Major After Transposition

to C Major

Hold down the [Transpose] button and press the E key (since E is the tonic).

Counting from C as a reference point, one moves up four keys, including the

black keys, to reach E, thus “4” appears in the display.

Press the corresponding key

By holding down the

[Transpose] button and

pressing both the [-] and [+]

buttons simultaneously, the

setting returns to its

original value(0).
